My colleagues and I were looking for a new place to try. Seen great views but my experience is far from it. My fajitas were very dry, beans were burnt. When placing the call the man I spoke with was pleasant. We noticed the prices weren’t the same as quoted over the phone and called back spoke with some one else and she stated she would adjust the price. I totally understand inflation and how it works but if you told me one thing over the phone and once I get there you charge me a whole 3 bucks more for my food is malarkey. I paid 13-14 bucks for what is supposed to be a lunch special that was 11.49.If the prices aren’t updated online when placing an order and it was bought up to restaurant and you state you will correct the error and did not. I will left my people know that the food is mediocre and the service sucks!!!! Waste of money!!!

We have been wanting to try this place for years. We walked in, and no one greeted us. It seemed like they were surprised we were there. We pointed to a table, and they nodded and said we could sit wherever. We sat down, and our waitress was hard to understand. It was a mix of speaking softly and with a hard accent. Got water to drink and Longview water or this part of Longviews water is not good. So my wife got a diet coke. They have delicious and fresh chips, and they bring out their salsa. It wasn't amazing, but they do have an alternate green salsa that was better and fresh. You have to get upon request. Definitely recommend that. We got the triple dip appetizer, but do not recommend it. It was basically an avocado smoothie and mac and cheese sauce x2. I ordered the Carne asada Torta and 5 street tacos(asada and chorizo mix), and my wife ordered the Pastor Gorditas. It took 45 minutes to get our food, there were only 2 customers in the restaurant at 11am. Us larger people had eaten 3 baskets of chips while we waited and were VERY tempted to leave as we were pretty much full.... it finally came out, and it was DELICIOUS, fresh, and well seasoned food. My wife loved her Gorditas, she tried them for the first time, and the AL Pastor was EXTREMELY juicy. This is like a tex-mex place but has a secret authentic Mexican side that they don't really push to us gringos. But definitely recommend that part of their menu.

Food was delicious! This was our first time visiting we came during lunch. Restaurant wasn't super busy plenty of seating. Nice and cool inside and comfortable feeling. Very clean as well! We will be back again and tell other people about our visit and experience.

Love Jocelyn's Mexican Grill! The food tastes so good and fresh that I feel like I'm eating at the home of a family friend. And that's how the staff TREATS us... like a family friend!I miss them being in Pine Tree (but it's worth the drive to their fresh, new building!)

Authentic decor, food, service! Found this on Google maps trying to find a good Mexican lunch, and the 4.5 star rating is spot on. The corn tortillas were delicious, and the refried beans were tasty. There's only a banner on the patio for their sign, so don't miss it!

Great food, it was just like we wanted it. I highly recommend it. We asked for the meat to be well done, and they did it. Not many taco places do that. Will definitely return!

We used to frequent this restaurant when it was located in Hallsville. Since it has moved closer into Longview, we thought we would give it a try. They have margaritas that are pretty decent and complimentary. My husband ordered the Carne asada special ($13.99) on Friday. It comes with Carne asada, spicy chicken enchiladas, rice, and beans. It was amazing and I will order that next time.I ordered the shrimp tacos, and I was very disappointed. The shrimp came out barely warm and overcooked. It was rubbery and chewy. The charro beans are always delicious. Next time, I will order the Carne asada and charro beans.

Amazing tacos but lacking in customer service, paid $12 for 6 tacos and was only given one Dixie cup of hot sauce asked for another politely because I originally called and asked for both hot sauces green and red/habanero and was told I’d have to pay $5 to get another. Being stingy with a returning paying customer is terrible for business lol smh..

Fajita tacos (2) rolled, fajita beans, rice, fresh pica and small scoop of guacamole $11.99. Good flavorful meat with grilled onions and peppers all cooked just right (firm but tender and carmalized). Fajita beans = chunky refried beans topped with a little meat sauce and melted cheese- very tasty. Both owners (husband and wife I am assuming) very polite, professional and attentive. Very impressed with everything!Parking: Ample parking

It was our first time dining and we loved it. We ordered shrimp fajitas and chicken nachos, they were both delicious. Would recommend it to anyone and will definitely be back.

I’ve loved Jocelyn’s since they were in Hallsville, visited them a few times in Pine Tree now glad to see they’ve relocated to the old Salsarita’s location! I can’t believe they aren’t packed, lunch menu is affordable, very fast, and delicious!! (It’s not on the menu but ask for the green sauce, it’s to die for and should be a permanent menu item!! ?)Restaurant is decorated beautifully, patio for warmer weather, very clean. Love ya girl, so proud of your success!Parking: Unlimited parking, huge lot for people pulling campers/trailers. Right off of hwy 259 for quick detour.

Terrible service. There for an hour. Everyone coming in after us received food but not us. When we decided to leave they tried charging us $20 for drinks and a tip. The waitress couldn't even get the order wrote down right and make sure we received our food in a timely manner.
